Hello Aspirant

In order to start a career in Microbiology, students must choose PCB (Physics, Chemistry and Biology) stream in Class 12. The students must score at least 50% marks in Class 12 to take up higher level education in the field of microbiology. Usually, there will be no entrance test for UG level courses in microbiology or biology.

Subjects Combination: Science stream with Biology as the major subject in Class 12 is mandatory to take up Microbiology course.

Eligibility: -

  • For taking up UG level courses, i.e., B.Sc in Microbiology, students need to pass Class 12 with a minimum of 50% marks.
  • For taking up M.Sc in Microbiology, B.Sc degree in Microbiology/ Biology/ Zoology/ Botany is mandatory.
  • For taking up Ph.D. or M.Phil courses in the field of microbiology and associated areas, Master’s course is mandatory in the relevant field.
  • Most universities conduct entrance test for Master’s, M.Phil and Ph.D. courses.

Hope it helps

Thank you & Good Luck!!!

Dear Student,

There is no entrance examination in the under graduate level of Microbiology or Biology. And first step for become a Microbiologist is to study the under graduate level with one of these subjects. For study this, candidates must have to study 10+2th level with science stream and biology must be a essential subject. After the under graduate level the student have to study post graduate level and the other higher studies. In the higher studies level some institutes organizes the entrance test for this.

These examinations are:

  • CSIR NET Exam.
  • GATE Exam.
  • AICE JRF/SRF.
  • ICMR-JRF Exam.
  • PET.
  • JGEEBILS.

Thank You.
